ROOTED uUNDED IN LOVE
Rev. w. J. Chichester. First Pres.
byterian Curch.

Being Communion Sunday, there were
seventy.nine applicants for membership,
forty-fve by letter from other churches
and thirty.four converts.
The pastor seized the occasion to give
expository notes upon the thirteen last
verses of the third chapter Of the APOSTLE
of Paul to the Ephesians. He dealt
especially and with great fervor upon
the 10Th. 18th, 18th and 10Th verses.
''That he would grant you, according to
the riches of his glory, to be strength :
ened with might by his spirit in the
inner man; that Christ may dwell IN your
hearts by faith; that ye being rooted
and grounded in love, may be able to
comprehend with all saints what is the
breadth. and length, and depth and
height, and to know the love of Christ,
which passeth knowledge, that ye might
be filled with all the fullness of God. J"
To be converted is not the end of the
Christians task. He has just entered
upon the Threshold of his spiritual
duties, and having within himself two
natures in conflict with each other, he
must constantly seek to be strengthened
with might by Christ's spirit in the inner
man to resist temptation and to
overcome the power of evil within
him. Ho must constantly seek
the Divine assistance, for the riches of
His love is so boundless that the more
He gives the more He has to give. He
will DIV ell in the hearts of those who
seek Him by faith, and therefore there
must be no faltering in devotion to duty;
and those who carry out the Divine will
in all their acts and works and thoughts
will find themselves grounded and
rooted in love, and will thus be able to
comprehend with the saints what is the
bread h and length and depth and
height of that illimiiable love which
Christ has for the children of men.
Paul reproved those of his friends whc
bewailed his great trials and tribula'
tions; for his faith was SO deeply
grounded and rooted that he could with
stand all persecution, and meet calmly
and with the strength of the spirit Of
the inner man every trial that could
come against him. The noble tree
majestically defes the storm when l..
roots are set deep in the ground; ant
Unus tne tTuo OnIIooiahs WHoSo i"i'H Il
imbedded in the immutable love o
Christ. can serenely face every worldly
assault that may come against him. l
is only the love Of God that can fill tn
heart to its perfect fullness. Worldl.
love, ambitions. pleasures, riches, can
not do it. That satisfying fullness mus
come from God Lefore the heart can b
truly and serenely satisfied.

CHRIST'S CHARACTER.
Rev. Or. Birdsall,s Sermon mt 81.
Paul,s Episcopal Church.

Rev. DR.. Birdsall, of st. Paul's Epis-
eopal Church, took for his text the fol-
lowing from the Epistle of Paul the Apos.
tie to the Philippians, second chapter:
"Look not every man on his own things,
but every man also on the things of
others. Let this mind be in you, which
was also in Christ Jesus" He said this
is called Palm Sunday, in commemora
tion of our Lords triumphant entry into
Jerusalem. This week is made holy by
the sufferings of our Lord aud Master,
which he looked forward TO with tran
quill mind, knowing that it must be
The story of his sufferings does not pre-
sent to us a scene for our WONDER or pity,
but for definite purpose; for our honor
and our salvation we needed such scene
to keep us in mind that our sins may be
forgiven. The apostle Paul takes one
feature of the story aud applies it to all

An Instructive Discourse bv N ev.

An Instructive Discourse bY N ey.
A. j. Wells.
Rev. A. j. Wells preached yesterday
morning at the First Congregational
church, taking for his text the following
verses from the gospel of st. Matthew:
'Judge not that ye be not judged; for
with. what judgment ye judge ye shall
be judged. and with what measure ye
mete it shall be measured to you again.
The speaker said the passage of Scrip
ture he quoted had been difficult to un-
derstand. Apparently it contradicted
other portions of the Scripture as, for
instance, where we are told, when
warned against evil men, that "By their
fruits ye shall know them" This in.
junction of the Lord is, however, not to be
interpreted in this sense. 1t is plainly
command to abstain from that disposi.
tion SO frequently shown to attribute
improper motives to those who do good
deeds. 1t is altogether unnecessary to
assume that hypocrisy is so common.
Evil words spoken of our neighbors or
slurs against them because we cannot |
always understand their actions are
greatly to be deplored. The Gospel of
Christ teaches above all things charity to |
those about us. We should bear in
mind our own failings before being iu
haste to condemn others. We are too
ready to see the mote that is in our
brothers eye, and forget the beam in
our own eye. A most important ques-
tion for Us to consider il how society is
to blame for the downfall of members of
our community? A trusted county off.
cial robs the people, and we all denounce
him without considering that possibly he
has been led on to commit his crane
by the lax morals of the community in
which he lives. So long as we carry
speculat on and business to the very
verge of dishonesty, and set low
standard of morals, so long we must ex-
pect to hear of the downfall of the
weaker members of society. We per.
NIT dens of vice to remain in our midst
and trample on our laws, and then won.
der because crime is so rampant. We
pay too little attention to the characters
of the men we put up for Office. Too often
we vote for the party in place of the {
man. l.
The speaker cl sed with an earnest
exhortation to his hearers to exercise
that greatest of Christian virtues, char.
ity, and thus flu fill the law of Christ, as
set forth in the text.

the pine and hemlock forests that onco stood
in that region there were hundreds of thou.

there are signs that point to an energetic
